--- Comment #2 from Austin Morton <austinpmorton at gmail dot com> --- Where is this limitation documented? The GCC documentation on the naked function attribute makes no mention of such a caveat: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/ARM-Function-Attributes.html See here for real world usage that triggers this issue: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/sbc.git/tree/sbc/sbc_primitives_armv6.c Note that I am not the original author of the above code, just someone who ran into issues attempting to use it on gcc newer than 4.x In this specific case it is simple enough to fix by pushing r3, but it seemed like a bug with the compiler, considering the behavior changed between major releases. If this is indeed an issue with the code itself and not the compiler, that is fine, but it should certainly be documented that naked functions are not meant to be called directly.
